Subject: RE: About the declare-flow-object-class From: "Didier PH Martin" <martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 4 Jul 1999 22:54:59 -0400 |
Hi Matthias, This is an interesting point of view. Tell me if I get you right. The declare-flow-object-class public identifier could be a reference to a document providing explanations about the flow objects. This implies that a catalog or a declaration would contain the location. For instance, the actual URN used as a public identifier for the SGML expansions would be set or resolvable to a URL pointing to a place where the documentation about these objects would be stored. Is this what you meant? Seen that way, FPI are useful things because we can retrieve the objects documentation. Implications for OpenJade: If we use a URN for each SGML extension, we need to provide a location resolution in a DTD so that the URN would point to a location. At this location, we store the documentation for all these objects. Implication for future references: We could set a repository for people to store their flow object documentation. regards Didier PH Martin mailto:martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.netfolder.com -----Original Message----- From: owner-dssslist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-dssslist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Matthias Clasen Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 1999 10:43 AM To: dssslist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: About the declare-flow-object-class > Hi Matthias, > > After checking what is said at page 179 in the DSSSL specs, Il read the > paragraph talking about the declare-flow-object-class declaration.
